Carpet coming off


Recommended Posts

Posted

Some of the carpet on the doors is starting to come off, what's good to use to glue it back down?

Upholstery glue would be best. I would imagine any place that sells rugs/carpets would have it.

I'd try contact cement (not the spraycan crap). Try to clean up the area best you can first though.

Buy a can of aerosol carpet adhesive from a local auto parts chain or either a hobby/crafts store. I reglued the carpeted door panels on my Volvo a while back. The carpet was pulling up 1-2'' from the edges of the doors, so I pulled it up a few inches past that and reapplied some glue(after masking off around the door to avoid spraying glue on everything).

Try 3M spray adhesive. When you use the spray adhesive, be sure you keep the 2 pieces separated for a couple of minutes before joining them (2 minutes after spraying glue on both pieces, that is :wink: .)

Yeah nothing beats 3M...
